so I've been at work checking the score without the possibility of posting, but ARE YOU ****ING KIDDING ME?
how the hell do you lose a game like this one against a team like this in this situation?
this Crosby/Malkin era Pens team is not supposed to be this frustrating. if it is, it's because someone at an upper level ****ed up royally...
Not that I wish for it to happen...
But assuming this team never gets competent management above, I wouldn't be against a trade to reap the benefits of what a Geno or whatever would be able to bring back in terms of actual depth. Again, not that I want it to happen, but I am looking around and seeing teams that have traded franchise players away, etc, and they made it out ok if they got the best return possible.
We're never going to see this team fill the prospect pool well enough to make it worth Sid & Geno's while when they are in their prime, by the time that whole fiasco is sorted out, these two will be in their Datsyuk and Zetterberg years as they are now.
Not kicking those thoughts out of my head...
The Pens should never be struggling against a team like the Flames in the state they are in currently and with how the Penguins have been playing.
Why the **** can't this team find a coach that tries something new with the roster, are we only allowed a few good things only? By that, I mean the kids are getting a shot in the bottom 6, but nowhere else. Hell I think any of those kids can do a better job in the top 6 of bringing some competency than Kunitz currently can.
How do you move Scuderi for not being a right fit, but then keep Kunitz and then keep shoving him down our throats as a top 6 forward when you clearly see the guy sucking and then the effort, this team is supposedly close to putting it together but that defensive game today....far from it.
